* UNUSUALLY IMMACULATE BODY WORK & INTERIOR *

I am the second owner since it was first imported into the UK. As you can see is a truly beautiful and collectable car with its own character and personality, a real head turner with its 1950s retro styling, with all of the creature comforts of a relatively modern car due it being manufactured in 1991. It has a CD player and air con. It’s one of only 20,000 produced in total and one of only 2,000 originally produced in this colour – Topaz Mist (beige to you and I) so a real rarity.

She has been my everyday car and has always been totally reliable. Starts first time, every time and has a lovely smooth engine. Sadly, I travel many miles with my work now and so I, very reluctantly, feel it’s time poor Fig went to a new home. It would be a shame to make such a pretty car work so hard. It deserves to be pampered and keeping two cars is just not an option for me. Every time I have driven the car it has been a genuine pleasure and has never once let me down. Its guaranteed to attract attention either from curiosity about what the car is, or from people on a trip down memory lane. You will find other road users are extremely courteous to you in this car. Im sure this is due to curiosity and it’s delicate appearance.

The Figaro is a convertible as you can see from the pictures perfect for summer driving. As a bonus, unlike other convertibles, the clever roof design means that when you arrive at your destination you dont look like youve just been in a wind tunnel. Its incredibly efficient heater and low profile mean it functions really well in winter too, even in snow and ice.

The original KPH speedometer is covered with a disk showing MPH but this can easily be taken off if you want to put the car back to its truly original state.

This car has lots of expensive and hard to find extras on it:

EXTERNAL

• Brand new roof fitted

• Chrome bumpers treated no rust

• Chrome wing mirrors

• Chrome eyelids over the headlights (value £80-100)

• Chrome door edges (value £40)

• Chrome sills

• Full interior refurb interior immaculate

• Original seats refurbed

• Cup holders (value £125)

• Basket shelf (value £130+)

• Emergency flare (value £20)

• Original stereo with AM/FM radio, cassette and CD

player (This can be easily upgraded to a modern MP3

player compatible version)

• Original Figaro carpet mats

The cambelt and all four shock absorbers were changed just before I purchased it. I have had the cv boot replaced and it has been regularly and thoroughly serviced. All receipts are in place. Replacement parts for the Figaro are not difficult to get hold of as there are some really good specialists around and most parts are with you within a few days in my experience. There are also a number of Nissan Micra parts that fit the Figaro perfectly.

The Topaz Mist is truly the most sought after of all the Figaro colours and is becoming increasingly hard to get hold of. Fully restored they go for anything from £8000 to £10,995 this little car would be an amazing investment and such good fun to own. You will never want to let it go once you’ve owned it.

You will seriously struggle to find a better example of a Figaro, let alone a rare Topaz Mist. This car has been seriously well loved and taken care of but its time to let her go to a new home.
